A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories.
Title : ICMP Extensions for MultiProtocol Label Switching

Filename : draft-bonica-icmp-mpls-02.txt
Pages : 10

The current memo documents extensions to ICMP that permit Label
Switching Routers to append MPLS header information to ICMP
messages. These ICMP extensions support an MPLS aware traceroute
application that network operators can use to trace paths through
the MPLS user plane.
Although these extensions are not being proposed as Internet
Standards, they are documented here because they have been
implemented by several vendors and deployed by several operators.

In the body type:

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
